Changelog – Version 0.3.3

Features

• Ported mod to Minecraft 1.21.1 (NeoForge & Fabric).
• Implemented unified native loader for Jolt Physics and Zstd.
• Added new physics information panels to the F3 debug menu.
• Implemented utility to generate Jolt convex hulls from render meshes.
• Decoupled debug chart rendering for better visual integration.

Fixes

• Resolved critical NeoForge crashes related to networking, Gradle, and Mixins.
• Corrected UV mapping in ClothRenderer to fix full atlas rendering.
• Fixed camera orientation and perspective transformations for physics-mounted entities.
• Enforced braking logic when switching between forward and reverse gears.
• Ensured vehicle mounting state persists across server restarts.
• Prevented race condition crashes in VxChunkDataStore during shutdown.
• Resolved terrain system deadlocks during server shutdown.
• Corrected physics chart scaling and alignment with vanilla FPS/TPS graphs.
• Fixed logic to reset physics pause state on world disconnect.

Performance Improvements

• Overhauled network packet serialization with Zstd compression.
• Replaced UUIDs with integer network IDs for body synchronization to reduce bandwidth.
• Implemented asynchronous region and index saving to prevent server stalls.
• Replaced standard collections with FastUtil to reduce memory overhead.
• Eliminated autoboxing in network dispatcher to reduce Garbage Collection pressure.
• Optimized post-update sync with lock-free passes and multi-locking.
• Prevented blocking chunk loads during buoyancy broadphase calculations.
• Tuned terrain tracker grid cell size for precise clustering.

Refactors & Architecture

• Reworked networking layer for direct NetworkManager use and unified packet handling.
• Unified buoyancy force calculation with recursive shape processing.
• Bundled all native libraries (vx-native) with consistent paths and loading methods.
• Moved NeoForge entrypoints to a dedicated package structure.

Chore & Miscellaneous

• Updated Jolt Physics JNI to version 3.5.0.
• Rewrote CONTRIBUTING.md for better clarity.
• Standardized version numbering and build configuration properties.
